STOP!   You may be WRONG!

Say the general multiplier for a government employee is 1.67 (approx).  The employee’s take home would be $59880 ($100K / 1.67). The employee pays… say 22% of that in taxes  = $13,173. But, after he files his taxes…after deductions… he really ends up paying 18% = $10,778.  The government recovers $11K on a $100K investment. 

 All math is fuzzy… especially when the government engages in such.
